Hello !

I set up a FREEBSD 2.2.8 and XFree86 3.3.3.
In terminal mode cyrillic locale works very good, but when i switch to
X,
i can only read texts in KOI8 encoding, not to write whem. I tryes to
set up a XKB,
and it works good, but enters the texts in ISO-8859-5 encoding (so, with
koi8 font, i see
a very strange symbols). I tryes to make direct xmodmap modification,
but it doesn't helps,
and programm xruskb doesn't work to.
 Anybody knows, how to switch the XKB from ISO-8859-5 to KOI8 ? Or, at
least, where can i found
    iso-8859-5 fonts ?

>From my XF86Config:
----------------------
    Xkbkeycodes    "xfree86"
    XkbTypes    "default"
    XkbCompat    "default"
    XkbSymbols    "en_US(pc102)+ru"
    XkbGeometry    "pc"
----------------------
>From default section of my login.conf:
----------------------
    :charset=KOI8-R:\
    :lang=ru_RU.KOI8-R:
----------------------
